These look great so far. I'll be watching.

[Bikefanatic]

It's a bunch of white tuck decks coming out, this one looks great by far.

[vasta41]

Wow! This is great- it's refreshing to see a KS campaign where the deck will probably be $9 again. Not to mention a nice looking tuck. T11 style

[cherrynukacola]

Like what I'm seeing so far. Intrigued as to what the courts will look like.

[Cbkimble]

GW just post this on FB. Apparently this deck will have the Bicycle branding, will be a recolor of the original, and will have a lower print run.

[Gamblers Warehouse]

This color iss a personal preference as i had never seen a blue deck with silver foiling... The artist wanted to go with white & gold foiling so we decided to have this as a limited deck for those who prefer Bicycle Branded decks as well as limited print runs...

Thanks
Eddie

[SeanWhelan]

Beautiful deck of cards! Nicely done

[vasta41]

Yes! This just got even better. And I love the custom king in the lower corner.

[Marcus]

Looks like stellar work, I'll keep an eye on both of these editions. Paul Carpenter has done silver foil on blue tuck (metallic blue I think, even) on his Encarded Standard, but I think we have room for more than one deck sporting those color choices.

[Gamblers Warehouse]

Thanks everyone. Hope you will love the rest of the deck as well...
Encarded Standard just launched and the thought process of Spirit Blue deck started 5 months back & at that time i had not seen that combination.

[Eoghann]

Courts are looking good so far! I'm interested.

[DragonSoul]

Oooo, I like what I see of the courts! Both color combinations are looking nice.

[Bikefanatic]

I wonder if this project would've caught heat if the white and blue tuck had the same deck in them. You know, similar like the one project that's currently out with the maroon and the soon to be "rare" and "most sought after" white pearl tuck........................

At the end of the day, there's been many projects who offered different tucks for the same deck (Fed 52, Bicycle White Allure, etc.) but when you try to over price it and over hype it, that becomes a problem.

For this one, I'll probably would get both. I'm not too much of a "fanatic" any more but kinda wish the blue tuck was unbranded.

[jodyeklund]

This is looking really nice. I really like the white and Gold unbranded.

[Gamblers Warehouse]

How about mettalic inks on the card backs guys???

How about mettalic inks on the card backs guys???

If done well than I love the idea.

I really like what I've seen so far. I am really wanting to see more of those courts.

[Eoghann]

Please show me some queens.

You can see the back color on blue looks abit dull as compared to the tuck back so we think mettalic inks will fill the gap...

[Gamblers Warehouse]

Guys we would really need your help in promoting this campaign as much as possible. We are trying to offer what backers really want a perfect deck of cards at a very reasonable price of $6/deck (unbranded version). We want to see this deck with full features including Mettalic inks on cards and tuck enhancements. We will not be setting up any requirements of buying a brick of unbranded to avail a limited version etc but we still hope you guys will understand that we need to cover costs and in the end make something out of it So i request you guys to fully support us in this campaign and make it a reality so we can offer the same in future projects as well... Release date 20th January...

Thanks
Eddie

Blackout Brother is on a roll.

[Gamblers Warehouse]

Previous projects from Blackout Brother:
1. Bicycle Blackout Kingdom
2. Bicycle Steampunk Bandits
And now Bicycle Spirit ...

[Mike Ratledge]

The more I hear, the more I like it, more ways than one!

[Bikefanatic]

It'll be lovely to have a gold gilded white deck! A silver blue Bike deck would also be great.

One more question. You showed the blue back King of Clubs with a blue stripe/banner in the middle. Will the white back be the same courts, will they have a gold stripe/banner in the middle or just any difference from the blue?

[Gamblers Warehouse]

The white deck will have a gold stripe/banner in the middle of the court
Its a different color combination than the blue deck...

This is one of my pet peeves when it comes to tucks. When the tucks look so much better than the cards (as many do, and understandably so due to the difference in paper/finish), it just lessens the impression of the cards so much. And in my experience so far, merely using metallic ink on the cards is far from enough to bring them in line with a blinged out tuck. This may not be a widely shared opinion, but personally I would in some way or another try to tone down the tuck. Let's face it; metallic ink will ALWAYS look better and shinier on the tuck than on the cards, and maybe it's just me but I just can't stand it when I pull cards out of a fully belled and whistled tuck, and the cards are just... kinda half-shiny in comparison.

That said - sorry for the slight rant - I do think these look awesome and will probably get them regardless of anything being done towards the above or not (which I would realistically not expect).

Great design, full customization, tuck box with all the bells & whistles, and all for $6 per deck? Its so nice to see that a great deck like this can be sold for a fraction of what comparable KS decks have been selling for at the $12-$20+ price range. This is a concept I'm all too happy to support. I'm tired of this recent trend of ultra "limited" decks with blinged out tucks that people have to scratch and claw over each other to get while paying an arm and a leg to do so. And its all justified because allegedly that's what the collector wants, which is of course complete BS. Here, we have a deck that's every bit as nice and desirable that's available to all who want it at a very reasonable price. I hoe this will be a very successful campaign and I certainly will do my part to support it.

[Eoghann]

I probably wouldn't celebrate just yet. I wonder what the funding goal is. Sounds like it could be pretty high. Or at least the LE version will be.

[Gamblers Warehouse]

$20k would be the funding goal.

[Eoghann]

Not bad. So there's no catch? Sorry I'm so skeptical. There's typically some catch to balance things out.
